Here in Clear Creek County, where snow-dusted peaks frame the historic mining town of Georgetown, this unique driving adventure fuses automotive precision with the pure thrill of controlled slides on ice. The setting itself is unmistakably rugged and striking — a natural frozen lake surface transformed into a tailored drift playground.

The 350z comes fully equipped for the icy challenge, fitted with aftermarket studded tires, a hydro-E-brake, and an angle kit, enabling drivers to push the car into gracefully executed drift laps on two dedicated drift courses on the lake.

Your rental includes the entry fee onto the ice, simplifying the logistics so all you need to focus on is mastering the drift.

To stay comfortable and safe, the operators recommend dressing warmly and wearing helmet protection—helmets are loaned if you don't have one. Ice cleats are also suggested for walking on the slippery surface around the lake, as footing can be tricky. While drills are user-driven, all rentals come with prepped vehicles and professional oversight to ensure a secure experience on the ice.

This experience stands out by combining rugged Colorado winter scenery with adrenaline-fueled motorsport in a uniquely accessible package only found in this corner of the Rockies. Georgetown itself is a charming alpine town with a rich mining heritage, inviting visitors to explore local history and scenic mountain views after their ice driving session.

Perfectly suited for adventurous visitors who crave dynamic winter activities beyond the usual ski slopes, the 350z Ice Drift Rental delivers a memorable blend of motorsport, natural beauty, and hands-on thrill.
